وُلِدَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بِالابْوَاءِ سَنَةَ ثَمَانٍ وَعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ تِسْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ وَقُبِضَ لِسِتٍّ خَلَوْنَ مِنْ رَجَبٍ مِنْ سَنَةِ ثَلاثٍ وَثَمَانِينَ وَمِائَةٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَرْبَعٍ أَوْ خَمْسٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً وَقُبِضَ بِبَغْدَادَ فِي حَبْسِ السِّنْدِيِّ بْنِ شَاهَكَ وَكَانَ هَارُونُ حَمَلَهُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ لِعَشْرِ لَيَالٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ سَنَةَ تِسْعٍ وَسَبْعِينَ وَمِائَةٍ وَقَدْ قَدِمَ هَارُونُ الْمَدِينَةَ مُنْصَرَفَهُ مِنْ عُمْرَةِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ شَخَصَ هَارُونُ إِلَى الْحَجِّ وَحَمَلَهُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ عَلَى طَرِيقِ الْبَصْرَةِ فَحَبَسَهُ عِنْدَ عِيسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ثُمَّ أَشْخَصَهُ إِلَى بَغْدَادَ فَحَبَسَهُ عِنْدَ السِّنْدِيِّ بْنِ شَاهَكَ فَتُوُفِّيَ فِي حَبْسِهِ وَدُفِنَ بِبَغْدَادَ فِي مَقْبَرَةِ قُرَيْشٍ وَأُمُّهُ أُمُّ وَلَدٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا حَمِيدَةُ.
